EREBUS Marcus is shuffling from foot to foot waiting at outside of the cells to see his daughter. His eyes are already brimming to the edge with tears as I unlock the first of the many doors that lead down to where Vanessa has been kept. Grace placed wards around the prison to keep the witches from coming back for her. Leaving her alive was a mistake on their part. One that I am sure they will want to rectify as soon as they can. As I open the final door to the cells Vanessa calls out from the corner of her cell, “I told you already I don’t know anything more than what I have already told you.” Even locked up in the prison beneath the town hall she maintains her air of arrogance and cruelty. “That’s not why I am here today,” I say coldly, wanting nothing more than to beat her to a bloody pulp. Stepping to the side I reveal her father who is standing behind me. Showing an emotion other than anger for the first time since she has been placed in the cells, Vanessa runs to th

ELLASlowly I maneuver around the crowd in the court room, carefully as not to bump anyone with my crutches. It seems that everyone from the pack is here. It is honestly a little embarrassing to have Vanessa and I’s personal feud on display for the whole pack to see. Taking my seat, I fold my hands neatly in my lap and focus on not fidgeting or looking nervous. Erebus has already warned me that I will be called to speak against Vanessa in front of the whole pack. That attention is enough to make me want to vomit. “You okay?” Emmett asks while taking the seat beside me.“I’ve been better,” I answer honestly, not caring who hears me. “How about you?”“The best I have ever been,” Emmett smiles at me brightly. “I think I owe some of this happiness to you.”“Huh?” I cock my head to the side in confusion, mostly because I was only half listening to what Emmett had to say. “Lucian told me that you helped him come around to the idea of a second mate,” Emmett’s eyes are glistening

ELLA Emmett refuses to release his grip on my wrist as he urges me to leave the hallway outside of the bathroom. “Luna, please,” he pleads with me but the power surging beneath my skin is demanding to be set free. Small green sparks burst from my fingertips causing Emmett’s hand to release mine in shock. Putting his hands on either side of my face he forces me to stare him in the eyes. “Ella,” he says informally, “you have to keep it together.” I nod as his stormy blue eyes stare into my own. Grinding my teeth together in frustration, I push the need to release my power deep down. “I need a place where I can release this energy,” I admit through my gritted teeth. Without another word Emmett leads me out of the city hall and into the deserted pack training grounds. “We should be fine here,” Emmett whispers as he looks around at the empty grounds. “Everyone is at the trial.” At the word trial my anger bubbles to the surface once again and the itch to release my powers grows

ELLA “No further questions,” Vanessa’s attorney says as he walks back to the table and sitting next to her. Erebus rises to his feet and rushes to the stand. With both of his hands he helps me to my feet and steadies me while I adjust the crutches under my arms. The tingles of the bond soothe the anxiety and rage that is burning through my body as I step down from the stand. Carefully he guides me back to my seat and I can feel the eyes of the crowd on my body as I walk. Bravely I look up into the faces of the crowd and I can see their pity for me as they cast a downward gaze when my eyes meet their own. Determined not to let them see me struggle, I hold my head high and push my shoulders back and plaster a fake smile across my face. “You did beautifully,” Erebus whispers gently in my ear and I flinch against his words. When Vanessa’s attorney asked me if Erebus had betrayed the bond I did not realize it would cut into my soul just like it had the night that it happened.

EREBUS Gently I try to shake Ella awake and instead of waking she rolls over and snuggles into my pillow. “It is expected that the Luna be there. You are supposed to be at my side,” I try and convince Ella to come to Vanessa’s beheading. “Since when do I do what is expected of me,” she retorts sleepily, and I cannot argue with her logic. “Ella, sometimes we must do what is expected of us,” I try to coach her out of the bed, but she only snuggles into my pillow farther. “I am not going to witness another death,” Ella says shortly as she sits up in the bed. “Especially not another one that is because of me.” “None of these deaths are because of you,” I try to reason with her, but she throws herself back on the bed and covers her face with the blankets. She mumbles something angrily from under the blanket that is muffled. “What was that?” I ask her to repeat herself. Ripping the blankets off of her head she looks at me with tears gleaming in her emerald, green eyes.

ELLA The hot water from the shower rushes down my body. Erebus’s words plague my thoughts and I know that he is right, my place is at his side. I can’t avoid the execution just because it makes me feel uncomfortable. “Damn it,” I murmur to myself as I shut off the water and quickly dry myself off. “It is about time that you came to your senses,” a familiar voice whispers quietly in my mind. “Lily?” I say aloud covering my mouth in shock. “Lily are you back?” “I am here,” she says weakly. “I am weak, but I am here.” Tears prickle at the corners of my eyes as her voices becomes clearer in my mind. “I am so sorry. If I would have known…” “Shhh,” Lily chastises me. “What’s done is done. Let’s go put this bitch to death.” “Goddess, I have missed you,” I laugh as I pull on a pair of jeans and a dark blue blouse. Swinging the door open I run as fast as I can out of the mansion towards the training grounds. My legs are stronger than they were, but they still shake and
Rogue Princess Chapter 73
ELLA The water runs red as it washes Vanessa’s blood from my body. Even the water is warm my body shakes as I recall what I have just done. Bracing my hands against the shower wall I try to calm my nerves, but it is not working. My legs begin to shake underneath my weight, and I fall to the tiles beneath my feet. Slow painful sobs escape my mouth as I curl my knees to my chest and sit with the hot water spraying down over me. I have never killed anyone before and when I got the opportunity, I tortured and slaughtered her like a monster. The painful sobs begin to come faster and louder as I think about each time I stabbed Vanessa. The bathroom door bursts open and Erebus storms into the shower, scooping me into his arms while fully clothed he wraps me gently in a towel. “Little Vixen,” he says gently moving my wet hair out of my face. “Why are you crying?” Sobs continue to wrack my body as Erebus engulfs me in his arms. “I k-k-killed her,” I stutter out between sniffles.
Rogue Princess Chapter 74
ELLA The green flames leave my hands and soar through the air to the target on the other side of the training grounds. The target bursts into green flames that quickly turn to orange. I groan frustratedly as I watch the target burn down to ashes. “You aren’t concentrating,” Grace yells from the stands that surround the training grounds. “Those flames should remain green if you want to keep control over them.” Rolling my eyes in her direction I send another green ball of fire across the grounds hitting the second target. This time the target is engulfed in green flames, but it does not burn. Sweat begins to pour down my face as I try to keep control over the flames that are one hundred meters away. Eventually fatigue takes over and I let go of the flames and the target begins to burn orange before collapsing to the ground. “Better,” Grace says acceptingly. “You need to work on your stamina though.” “I was a human for the better part of a month,” I groan back at her. “I am s
